81Mr. Children

I am American and I do not speak Japanese, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate Mr. Children's music. They are pretty awesome!

I'm a Chinese and I believe Mr. Children best represents the charm of Japanese music. You want to show the world the best of Japan, get Mr. Children on the list.

I'm not a native Japanese speaker, because of Mr. Children, I study Japanese. learnt a lot from them, like chasing dream, facing my lover, my family, my job, and the world. They are the best band in Japan I believe.

They are undoubtedly one of the Japanese groups with the best singing and dancing skills. Their performances have the ability to touch the heart of every audience. They have also been representing Japan in various diplomatic occasions and have a very positive image.

Awesome team! They had a magic can touches and connects any audiences when the music ringing in Olympics stage :) I looking forward that timing while cray cray for me!

They try very hard to be singers and let the world see their performance and effort!

95Jackie EvanchoJacqueline Marie "Jackie" Evancho is an American classical crossover singer who gained wide recognition at an early age and, since 2009, has issued an EP and five albums, including a platinum and gold album and three Billboard 200 top 10 debuts .

Jackie would be a natural here. Experienced in singing at large special events, sings in many languages and she would love to return to Japan where she was well-received a few years ago. - BobG

Correction: Hiroshima Peace Arch concert. - Trancas

Jackie is well respected and loved in Japan where she has already sung with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra. She is regarded by many to be the epitome of talent and class. She would make both America and Japan proud.

96Tackey & Tsubasa

Tackey was Johnny Junior's leader and is still in many aspects their leader. Innovative yet working hard at promoting traditional Japanese culture, he could bring the best of both worlds to the ceremony. The ceremony could feature bits of Takizawa Kabuki and then Tackey and Tsubasa could kickstart a Johnny's showcase bringing together all the other Johnny's group that have been voted.

Pleasant, polite with brilliant smiles. Best example of Japanese courtesy.
